Machu Pichu

We had a great ride on train through the mountains to Machu Pichu. It is amazing how the mountains start changing from dryer mountains to rain forest mountains in such a short drive.
A quick check in at the hotel then we were off to the Mountain. Of course it started to rain as soon after we got into the Machu Pichu site. We did a little exploring on our own then back to the hotel. Because we had to pack light, we are all scrambling to dry off what clothes and shoes we have: hair dryers, laundromat, etc.
Now, we are off to a restaurant within a block of the hotel. Alpaca and trout is on the menu. Almost everyone has chosen to have alpaca.
Tomorrow some have chosen to go on hike up the Huyana Picchu (young mountain). It is an early start at 3:30 am. Them we will all have a guided tour at 9:30 am followed by some other shorter hikes. Hopefully we will have a dryer day tomorrow.
